1. The Baron had a daughter fair But sixteen summers has she seen. Her heart was light, no grief was there, And lov'd by all was she I ween; But Love hath wiles for Beauty's smiles, As Alpine hunter young and bold, Oft sought her bow'r at evening hour, And many a tale of rapture told.
[CHORUS] "Fly to the mountain" whisper'd he -- Euli ha Euli oh Euli ho -- "Fly to the mountain love with me" Eure la ha Eure la ha la la la --
2. But she, the young betrothed, was claim'd By Olrieh's lord, the proud and old; The day was fix'd, the dower named And counted out in shining gold. The halls were bright that nuptial night, And gladness through the castle rung; But there was one, who stood alone, And softly to the maiden sung -- "Fly to the mountain -- fly with me, Maidend of love! I wait for thee!"
(CHORUS)
A steed stood at the castle gate, And dark and lowering was the night; Soon on his back the lovers sat; And swift and silent was their flight; Now, joy betide the hunter's bride, Who gave a heart no gold could buy; Long may she roam her mountain home, And sing the alpine melody. "Life to the mountain wilds for me; Life in the valley, love with thee."
